Overview
--------
The most important new features in this version of CrystFEL are:
- Introduction of "prediction refinement".
- Scaling and post-refinement with "partialator".
- New indexing methods: mosflm-cell and asdf.
- process_hkl --even-only and --odd-only instead of "alternate-stream".
These new features have individual sections below. In addition, there are many
other new developments. See the ChangeLog or the changes page on the website
for more details. There were, of course, the usual large number of smaller
refinements and bug fixes.
Introduction of "prediction refinement"
---------------------------------------
A new refinement step has been introduced between the indexing and prediction/
integration stages of indexamajig. The refinement aims to maximise the
agreement between the predicted spot positions and the peak positions found by
the peak search step, at the same time as putting the peaks as close to the
Bragg condition as possible. This increases the accuracy of spot prediction,
which has positive effects on the downstream processing stages.
The prediction refinement stage allows the central beam position to move
relative to the entire detector. The required offset for each crystal is
recorded in the stream and can be visualised using scripts/detector-shift.
If, somehow, the prediction refinement causes problems for you, you can disable
it using the indexamajig option "--no-refine".
Scaling and post-refinement with "partialator"
----------------------------------------------
The scaling and post-refinement program partialator is no longer considered
experimental in this version. Many users are already finding significant
improvements in their data simply by applying scaling without partiality:
$ partialator -i my.stream -o my.hkl -y mypg --model=unity --iterations=3
A further improvement is sometimes obtained by applying partialities and doing
full post-refinement:
$ partialator -i my.stream -o my.hkl -y mypg --model=scsphere --iterations=3
Note that partialator applies a per-crystal resolution cutoff to stabilise the
scaling calculation. Therefore, you should experiment with different values
for "--push-res".
Further improvements to partiality modelling, scaling and merging will be
included in the near future.
New indexing methods
--------------------
This version of CrystFEL can make use of the known unit cell algorithm included
with very recent (7.2.0 or later) versions of mosflm. The known unit cell
algorithm is used by default if you provide lattice parameters to indexamajig.
If this isn't what you want, or if it doesn't work well for you, use
"mosflm-nocell" as your indexing method to restore the old behaviour.
A new indexing method, asdf, has been added. This algorithm is built into
CrystFEL directly, so no temporary files or external programs are needed.
The old indexing methods "grainspotter" and "reax" have been removed.
process_hkl --even-only and --odd-only
--------------------------------------
When using process_hkl for merging, you no longer need to use "alternate-stream"
to split the stream into two parts in order to calculate figures of merit such
as Rsplit. Instead, simply use the "--even-only" and "--odd-only" options to
merge only even-numbered and odd-numbered crystals from the stream:
$ process_hkl -i my.stream -o my.hkl1 -y mypg --even-only
$ process_hkl -i my.stream -o my.hkl2 -y mypg --odd-only
$ compare_hkl my.hkl1 my.hkl2 -y mypg --fom=rsplit [..etc..]
Note that the numbering of crystals for this purpose is simply according to the
order they appear in the stream. For most purposes, this is effectively random.
Note further that partialator writes the ".hkl1" and ".hkl2" split-merged
datasets for you automatically.
